Kerr was ruled out for the remainder of the campaign after crashing during the Stars’ aborted home fixture with Leicester last week, but the early stages of his recovery have been encouraging and he is already casting an eye towards 2019.

He said: “I’d love to be back at King’s Lynn, count me in. I’d had my best year until last week and hope I can stay, they’ve been great to race for, management and fans.

“It was obviously a bad break but the bone had gone back really clean and neatly. I’ve just got to be careful I don’t knock it or do anything stupid.

“However, this hasn’t put me off the sport. I’ll be back, and stronger.”
